Saturday Blog Hop – Colors of Fall

It’s Saturday and time for our Create with Connie and Mary Blog Hop. This week our theme is “Colors of Fall”.  One of my favorite things are fall mums this time of year!  They look so festive on everyone’s porches!

COLOR & CONTOUR

I thought the flowers in the Color & Contour would make pretty mums and paired them with the All About Autumn Designer Paper that is FINALLY back in stock!

Stampin’ Details:

• The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Copper Clay cardstock, score at 5-1/2 and fold to form base card.
• A 2-1/2 x 4 piece of All About Autumn DSP was added to the right side.
• The large scallop rectangle was cut from Basic White cardstock with the Scalloped Contour Dies and stamped with the greeting in Copper Clay Ink, then added to the front.
• The flowers were stamped with Copper Clay Ink on Basic White cardstock and colored with Crushed Curry, Pumpkin Pie and Blackberry Bliss Inks using Blending Brushes.  The centers were colored with Dark Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends and ringed with the Dark Copper Clay Stampin’ Blends.  They were cut with the Scalloped Contour Dies and added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
• The leaves were stamped with Mossy Meadow Ink and colored with Mossy Meadow and Copper Clay Inks using the Blending Brushes, then hand-cut and added under the flowers with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
• A trio of green Speckled Dots were added to the background.
